"connection refused" when accessing gmail pop server

I am having a problem connecting to gmail. I get a "connection refused" error when I try to download or upload mail. This problem started last Saturday Aug, 22nd, give or take a day. As for trouble shooting, here's what info I can share. I am connected to the internet because I can browse websites. I was able to access my mail on the gmail website, using the browser interface. On the website, I was able to read new mail that had been sent to me since the problem started, so there's no problem with the account itself. I have made no recent changes to my e-mail client settings and I tried another email client and had the same type of error message come up. POP is enabled in Gmail. I can not run the telnet test provided on gmail because it appears to be only available to PC users. However, I took my iBook down to the local pub, connected to the internet on wifi, and had no problem. My email client performed its normal functions as usual. At this point I gather the problem has something to do with my ISP specifically not being able to see gmail's server, or vice versa. Should I contact gmail to ask them if there is something they can check? If I have to resolve this through my ISP, what should I tell them to look for? Are there any setting in the System Preference Networking Control Panel I should be checking, such as proxies, ethernet, TCP/IP, etc? Thanks

I have found that I can use "terminal" on my Mac to run a telnet command on gmail's server addresses. It says "connection refused". Pretty much the same thing my e-mail client said. So I am still working under the assumption that the problem has something to do with my ISP specifically not being able to see gmail's servers, or vice versa. But which is more likely? If the problem is with my ISP, should I simply ask them to change my IP address (or their IP address)? This is an area that I am not very familiar with. And there is an added complication that I may not be able to contact the ISP directly. I will have to speak to the landlord, and it will probably be a situation where I will have to tell the landlord what to say to the ISP. So I'm looking for the layman's nutshell way to convey the info to the landlord so that it does not get lost in the translation to the ISP.
And another point. I am being told that other users on my landlord's network are not having problems with gmail. Is there a way for ME to force the IP address on MY computer to change? Or is that not really the issue? Thanks

My 'secure 'connection 'refused' when access iTunes after 8.0.2.20 upgrade

My 'secure' network connection was 'refused' when access iTunes. I can view & navigate the iTunes store AND I can update my Podcasts successfully...BUT I can't sign in/download /purchase, et al.
Triage so far...not neccessarily in this order...
1) Not using Norton or Macafee - using Verizon Security suite
Checked firewall - itunes is listed a 'safe'
2) Ran ITunes Dx program - followed the suggestion to check SSL & TLS - checked correctly (log pasted below)
3) Uninstalled iTunes and then reinstalled - no change
4) Cleaned out IE files cookies - no change
5) Renamed the etc/HOST file name - no change
6) the Apple Help person said that he has no idea and have done what he would have already suggested...

Although a didn't currently have Norton and had thought I had uninstalled it (no longer in my program menu & no residual icons et al...there is the 'Semantic' TOOL that must be used to REALLY remove Norton security remnants that are buried deep in the c-drive program files. This I didn't know about...
So I downloaded the tool from the Norton web page and ran it per their instructions. After rebooting, my 8.0.2.20 iTunes secure connect was fine.
I spent 9+ days trying to get iTunes to work. Norton is the devil company and I will never use that security program again - especially with all the other Norton-specific issues iTunes is having release after release...

Firefox 18.0.1 consuming excessive CPU--both in Standard and Safe Mode--when accessing Gmail

Firefox 18.0.1 consumes excessive CPU--both in Standard and Safe Modes--when accessing Gmail (in Standard Mode). CPU consumption averages around 56% on my dual-CPU, Windows 7 desktop.
The only way to stop this from happening it to open Gmail in "HTML" mode. When I open Gmail in Standard mode, a "Loading..." status shows at the top of the page. After about 30 seconds, a error window pops-up within the Gmail page saying that there is a performance problem and provides the option to load Gmail in a limited, "HTML" mode. Clicking the HTML Mode link solves the issue. I've been using Firefox for years and have never seen this issue until now.

Mail problem accessing Novell POP server

This one is both complicated and puzzling, and I sure would appreciate a solution.
We use Novell Groupwise for email. It allows both POP and IMAP access.
Two weeks ago, I stopped being able to access mail from the servers using either POP or IMAP from both home and office. Simultaneously, almost. At home I was using Mail, at the office Eudora.
After the usual tinkering, I got both home and office working with Mail through POP. That lasted a few days.
Yesterday, POP stopped working at the office. Then, at one point, it worked, and the day's mail came in all at once. Then it stopped working. I went home. I got a lot of mail when I checked in. Then it stopped. Today, I've gotten no mail at the office from the POP server.
Mail is communicating with the server. When I put the wrong password in, it lets me know it was not accepted. I don't get that message with the right password.
My IT people say the mail server is functioning properly, and that no one else who uses Mail is having similar problems. I've checked all the settings, and they are as they should be.
I recently upgraded to 10.4.1.11.
Does this sound like a problem anyone has seen before?

Thanks to infinite vortex. Changing the frequency from five to fifteen minutes seems to have solved the problem, at least so far. Curious--but not surprising--that I could find nothing about such a limit anywhere on Cox's web site, nor was this mentioned by their tech support in a series of exchanges trying to resolve the problem.

Connection Refused when starting node manager on Linux

Hi,
I'm using Weblogic 6.1 SP 2 on Redhat Linux 7.1 with Sun JDK 1.3.1. When I'm running
the Node Manager on one machine and try to connect to it from another machine (Admin
Server) I'm getting the following message:
<May 28, 2002 6:35:59 PM IDT> <Error> <NodeManager> <Could not start server 'EnvelopeManagedBackup'
via Node Manager - reason: '[SecureCommandInvoker: Could not create a socket to the
NodeManager running on host 'jarjar:5555' to execute command 'online null', reason:
Connection refused: connect. Ensure that the NodeManager on host 'jarjar' is configured
to listen on port '5555' and that it is actively listening]'>
The Node Manager is listening on the server's listen address (jarjar) and on the
correct port (5555). When running netstat -a | grep 5555 on the server I get the
following (jarjar is the computer name):
tcp 0 0 jarjar:5555 *:* LISTEN
The admin server is registered in the nodemanager.hosts file.
Can anyone help me on this?

....I happened to get "execute command 'online null'" because of a missing
"Listen Address" and/or "Listen Port" entry in the "Remote Start" tab of the
Administration Server.
Node Manager passes on such values when starting up a managed server - if
either is blank, the managed server can not identify the Admin Server to
register to...

In your client program, when you do "new XXX_Impl(String wsdlurl)", did you
pass in the wsdl you were hitting with browser?

SUNW.iws - "Connection refused" when probing a uri in monitor_uri_list

Hi,
I use Sun Cluster 3.2 and would like to set Sun Webserver 7u2 as failover resource.
I configured Resource Group which contain Logical Hostname and Sun Webserver as data resource (using SUNW.iws). I set all nedded data and turn on the resource.
I've got the messages:
Feb 11 01:25:21 krasnal-A SC[SUNW.iws:5,Webserver-gr,Webserver-server,iws_svc_start]: Failed to connect to host ha-web and port 80: Connection refused.
Feb 11 01:25:36 krasnal-A last message repeated 7 times
Feb 11 01:25:37 krasnal-A SC[SUNW.iws:5,Webserver-gr,Webserver-server,iws_svc_start]: A resource restart attempt on resource Webserver-server in resource group Webserver-gr has been blocked because the number of restarts within the past Retry_interval (620 seconds) would exceed Retry_count (2)
Feb 11 01:25:37 krasnal-A SC[SUNW.iws:5,Webserver-gr,Webserver-server,iws_svc_start]: Failed to start iPlanet Web Server.
Feb 11 01:25:37 krasnal-A Cluster.RGM.rgmd: Method <iws_svc_start> failed on resource <Webserver-server> in resource group <Webserver-gr> [exit code <1>, time used: 7% of timeout <300 seconds>]
server has been shutdown
In this moment the second node on cluster start the resource and do the same. Monitor, failed, turn off. :-( . Resource are switched 3 times between nodes and at the end get offline status.
The most important is that connection refused for uri in monitor_uri_list and resource in cluster isn't start or triggering restart/failover.
It is look like the failover monitor try check resource on port 80 after service start and when notice that service (Webserver) not started - turn down the interface on this node and turn up on second node. Service (webserver) can;t start becouse the interface are down.
I've found some similar problems which are describes on sunsolve:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-1-4900125-1
and
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-1-4967197-1
I'm beginner in cluster problems and maybe I did some big mistake, but ...some help me

Solved!
I read this post: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3966316
and now get things work.
If you installed NetBeans, you should notice that in your {tomcat_home}/conf/web.xml, NetBeans add these:
<filter>
    <filter-name>HTTPMonitorFilter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.netbeans.modules.web.monitor.server.MonitorFilter</filter-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>netbeans.monitor.ide</param-name>
      <param-value>127.0.0.1:8082</param-value>
    </init-param>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>HTTPMonitorFilter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
    <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
    <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher>
    <dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>Now you should comment out these lines and then can get connected.

Connection refused when connecting SMP 3 to ASE 16

Hi all,
We're in the process of setting up an installation of SMP 3.0 with Sybase ASE 16 for one of our clients. The final goal is to run the SAP EHS Safety Issue mobile app.
When installing SMP 3.0 with Derby database, I'm able to start the system without any problems. However, when I try the installation configuring the Sybase ASE DB, the service gets stuck on a loop while starting up and doesn't react. I cannot stop it manually nor restart it. The only way to stop it is by restarting the system.
On the Sybase side of things, I can install the ASE without any issues. I have also done all the preliminary steps to create the user and smp3 DB for SMP. I've connected to the DB using this user and I'm able to see that the smp3 DB is created.
When looking at the logs, I can see an exception with the message: Connection refused. Here's an excerpt:
2014 07 28 15:01:10#0-500#ERROR#org.jgroups.protocols.SMP_JDBC_PING##anonymous#Timer-2,SAPDSMP-5000-smp3-smpserver:com.sap.mobile.platform.server.online.admin.backendconnections.cluster.ClusterBackends,SAPDSMP-4630###Failed creating JDBC connection for SMP_JDBC_PING java.sql.SQLException: JZ006: Caught IOException: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

Any idea what may be causing this issue?

10g on enterprise linux AS 3 - connection refused when attempting to ...

I recently installed 10g on RedHat Linux Enterprise AS 3. The installation appeared to go seamlessly and immediately afterwards I was able to access SQL PLUs via
http://localhost.localdomain:5560/isqlplus and login as system and perform queries. Shortly thereafter, this stopped working. When attempting to relaunch the browser and direct to this address, I receive the error: The connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost.localdomain:5560. The same error is received for other urls , e.g. ..ulrasearch, em etc.
I checked some of the prior postings that discuss checking configuration files for Apache, etc. I don't seem to have an Apache directory created anywhere although it is referenced in some of the log files.
Rebooting the machine makes no difference.
I am new to 10g and running Oracle on linux so any help is appreciated.

Alison is right,
For the another processes you need to type :
ULTRASEARCH
$$ORACLE_HOME/bin/searchctl start [stop]
ENTERPRISE MANAGER DATABSE CONTROL
$$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start dbconsole [stop]
ORACLE MANAGEMENT AGENT
$$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start agent [stop]

Impersonate user when accessing Microsoft SQL Server from powershell using Windows Authentication

Hi All,
Below is the powershell script to connect a SQL DB using windows authentication by impersonating a user. The user should have login access to the server. Script can be highly useful when service id is used to access DB using powershell.
[reflection.assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo") | Out-Null
$ds=$null
$conn = New-Object -typeName Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server -argumentList "Servername"
$db = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Database
$conn.ConnectionContext.ConnectAsUser = $true
$conn.ConnectionContext.LoginSecure=$true
$conn.ConnectionContext.ConnectAsUserName = "username"
$conn.ConnectionContext.ConnectAsUserPassword ="password
$conn.Loginmode
$db = $conn.Databases.Item("dbname")
$ds = $db.ExecuteWithResults("select top 10 Name from Tablename")
Foreach ($t in $ds.Tables)
Foreach ($r in $t.Rows)
Foreach ($c in $t.Columns)
Write-Host $c.ColumnName "=" $r.Item($c)

That is OK when you want to manage the instance biut it wojn't work if the tools are not installed.
This works from anywhere all of the time and is simpler:
$datasource='MyServerInstance'
$database='NorthWind'
$connStr='Data Source={0}; Database={1}; Trusted_Connection=True;' -f '$datasource,$database
$conn=New-Object System.Data.SQlClient.SQlConnection($connStr)
$conn.Open()
$cmd=$conn.CreateCommand()
$cmd.CommandText='select * from products'
$rdr=$cmd.ExecuteReader()
0..($rdr.FieldCount-1) | %{$rdr.GetName($_)}
$conn.Close()
If you want credentials just add them.
$connStr='Data Source={0}; Database={1}; Trusted_Connection=True;UID={2};PWD={3};' -f $datasource,$database,uid,$pwd
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm new to oracle. Recently I suseccfully instaled Oracle 10g database on fedora core 3. I could log on to OEM and isqlpus via firefox. But on next day, when I log on again, firefox say:
Connection refured when attemping contact localhost.localdomain:5500/em
Could anyone teach me the detail procedure to solve this problem?
please help me.I need your help.
many thanks.

"Did you check the OEM Service !!!..it's must be started"
Many thanks for your reply and sorry because I'm to late to reply to you.
I'm also new to linux fedora core 3 so could you teach me how can I check wether the OEM Service is started?
Please help me. I need your help.

404 File not Found when accessing Video Web server

I am trying to access a Video Web server remotely. Everything works fine on a PC and also on Internet Explorer for Mac.
When I login using Safari I get the error message "404 File not Found" "The requested URL was not found on this server"
I have been successful twice through Safari but after that it doesn't seem to work for days.
I have removed all cookies, emptied the Cache, reset safari, deleted all keychain access references to the website.
It seems to be a security issue but I am not sure what else to do.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Try using open DNS:
Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security:
Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)

Connection Refused when sending adapter test message XI 2.0

Connection reset when accessing HTTPS through proxy

Since upgrading to firefox 27 when trying to access https://www.birtles.org.uk I receive a connection reset or connection interrupted error. I am connecting through a proxy. Firefox 26 works correctly.
I have tried on 3 different machines 2 windows and one Mac with the same results.

Same issue and resolution for me when I try to access https://mail.ntlworld.com. I'm also connecting through a proxy, have tried both of them available to me. It works fine using other browsers, just firefox causing issues.
Also on an unrelated note, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/users/register keeps redirecting to the login page. Tried on multiple browsers, in the end had to use mobile to create an account.
